Vice President of Operations (manufacturing exp. req.) Description

Our client, an international technology solutions provider, is seeking a Vice President of Operations to lead manufacturing at their 70,000 sq. ft. facility in Littleton, MA. This executive will oversee end-to-end operations. From global sourcing and engineering to testing, assembly, and quality assurance, you will drive performance, efficiency, and overall operational excellence. Their US business has achieved 109% growth over four years and is now scaling into a larger production environment. To support this expansion, they are looking for a seasoned operations leader who can guide the transition, strengthen processes, and foster a culture of urgency, accountability, and continuous improvement. The ideal candidate is a forward-thinking, hands-on leader who can seamlessly balance long-term strategic planning with day-to-day engagement on the production floor. This is a rare opportunity for a seasoned operations executive to leverage their expertise within a high-growth US division that has expanded from $30M to $100M in just a few years. With strong backing from their overseas parent company and a pipeline of potential acquisitions, this is more than an operations role, it’s a true seat at the executive table with the influence and runway to drive meaningful, lasting results across a global enterprise at a defining point in its US trajectory.
